The Official 2010 F1 Thread!!!!!!

Rosberg is going to get schooled by Schumi this season.

We find out Button was lucky as hell, and will get worked over by his teammate (and I don't even like Hameeelton).

Alonso wins the title.

Curious to see what Senna Jr has to offer

Agree with at least the possibility of all the above, I hope Schumi does great, Hamilton will destroy Button, and Alonso has a huge chance to grab his 3rd championship. Still hoping for Vettel to rock the boat though, he probably has an even bigger chance in 2011 when they go back to the defusers they were supposed to run in 2009, when Red Bull had the best single decker defuser out there by a long shot.

I also hope Vettel wins the title, just don't think it will happen, yet.

But Alonso/Schumi are the best development drivers out there, and I think Ferrari will be back on top of their game this year.

Curious to see if his team even makes the grid.

Forza Felipe!!!!!

I want to see if Schumacher can be the Brett Favre of F1

[CincinnatiKid]

Should be some interesting battles this season, I think Shumi will be competitive, but I think Vettel, Hamilton, Button and Alonso will give him a run for his money. Can't wait for it to start.

Whatever, we are all fans of F1 and assume you already know that stuff if you are looking in here, otherwise you are a nub and can go back to NASCAR if you don't know who the drivers are.

[Ray Smoodiver]

It's going to be a two tier grid this season. Everyone running a cosworth motor is pretty much just there to make up the numbers.

Bruno Senna isn't the son of Ayrton, he's the nephew I believe.

They are gonna bother having a season? With so many powerhouses pulling out funding it's gonna be a lackluster season imo.
